Cottage Grove Metal Roof Installation

As a Cottage Grove metal roof contractor, we specialize in metal roof installations. Homes and commercial properties alike can benefit from a well-installed metal roof. One reason is because of the durability of steel.  It doesn’t degrade like petroleum-based asphalt roofs do over time.  Metal roofs last 40-60 years on average, but some have been known to last for well over a century. 

Property owners may have to replace their asphalt roof 2-3 times in the lifetime of a home since they only last 17-23 years in our Minnesota climate. While asphalt roofs seem to cost less initially, the long-term costs of reroofing are far more expensive than investing in a metal roof. One reason is that asphalt roofs increase in price exponentially over the years due to labor and material price increases.  Why not install a metal roof that is going to last a lifetime? It is why we say, “One life, one metal roof, one time.”

Of course, when considering the average lifespan of a metal roof, the quality of the installation matters. When property owners contact AM Burney Exteriors, they can trust that Cottage Grove metal roof installation experts will be there to get the job done right, the first time with service that is the best in the area.

Metal Roof Installation By Local Metal Roofing Contractors

When choosing a roofing company, there is one great advantage when choosing an experienced local roofing company in Cottage Grove over one from out of state. One reason is that after installation, should there be a problem with the roof, which we do not anticipate, or if a roof repair is necessary due to storm damage, like a tree falling on the roof, a local company like us is here to help.

Plus, it is important to us to build relationships with our clients.

Benefits of Cottage Grove Metal Roof Installation

Consider metal roofs as an investment because they offer many significant advantages over traditional roof types over their long, long life of usefulness. We understand that property owners want to ensure they get the most value for their money. It is why home and commercial building owners turn to metal roofs.

Oftentimes, standing seam roofs leave the largest impression on passersby because of their unique aesthetic. On a standing seam metal roof, long metal panels are fastened vertically side-by-side. There are two ways to fasten a standing seam roof to the roof deck. One is a hidden fastener system where an overlapping panel hides all screws; this type of system is used on a heated structure like a home or cabin. The other installation system is known as an exposed fastener system. This can be seen in outbuildings and storage buildings that are not heated. The screws are exposed to the elements.

Standing seam steel panels come in a variety of gauges depending on the thickness of the steel panel. They are available in smooth or striated, giving the roof a modern aesthetic. Beyond this, one of the main aspects our clients love about these types of roofs is that they come in many different colors. Black, brown, green, red, and gray, and today, multi-colored panels are available.  And too, paint technology has come a long way in the last 30 years, which ensures the paint color maintains a beautiful color for the long life of the steel panel.

As a local Minnesota metal roof contractor, we make our own panels for a custom fit and too it saves in shipping and we are able to pass those savings on to our clients. This practice also saves time. Should a panel get bent, or a panel is missing (this sometimes happens with pre-fab panels arriving from out of state) we are able to pivot, react and get a new panel made right away so there is no downtime or hold ups on installation day. A great advantage, saving time and money.Here is what to expect from a standing seam steel roof installation in Cottage Grove: 

  • Resistant to high winds, heavy rains, storms, hail, and snow
  • Class A fire resistant
  • Class 4 hail impact resistant
  • Custom installs to fit any roof design and pitch
  • Lightweight
  • Dirt and stain resistant for long-lasting curb appeal
  • Available in many solid and blended colors
  • 50-year transferable warranties  
Stone-coated steel roofs are popular among many of our Minnesota neighbors. They come in five different profiles. This selection offers great choices to enhance the look of the home’s architecture. The profiles are Cottage Shingle which resembles asphalt shingles; Shake, which is designed to replicate hand-split wood shakes; Shingle, a low profile with high wind resistance; Barrel Vault, which has the traditional look of barrel Spanish tile and Pacific Tile, a medium profile tile resembles the style of southern Europe. They are available in a variety of natural, earth-tone solid, and blended colors. 

What is unique about this stone-coated metal panel is that it has a patented, built-in ventilation system that helps release hot air that can be trapped by more conventional forms of the roof. The thermal performance of this roof reduces cooling costs. Heat is expelled faster as it is allowed to move across the roof deck. One test shows an asphalt shingle attic temperature at 147 degrees, while the direct-to-deck stone-coated roofing system shows 89 degrees. That is a substantial difference. What this means for our customers is less heat on the roof deck and attic, less need to run the air conditioner, and saves cost in energy bills.

Made in the U.S.A. from 26 gauge steel that has an A-50 galvalume that stops rust. The embossed panels are covered with small stone granules that are applied to the panel with an acrylic polymer bonding agent that has been heat treated. This application process is tough! The look of the stones make the panels look more traditional, similar to an asphalt roof. But steel tough. So much so that this panel comes with a Class 4 Hail Impact Resistant rating. The best in the industry.  Warranted to withstand hail up to 2 ½ “ in diameter and winds up to 120 MPH!

  • Fire resistant
  • Patented above sheathing ventilation system that helps cool the roof

Metal Roof Installation

Metal Roof FAQs

Is a metal roof noisy?

This is probably the #1 question we as metal roof installers get.  Perhaps you remember standing under a barn, shed or outbuiliding during a rainstorm. In these structures, the steel roof panels are secured directly to the rafters.  There is no sound barrier so it sounded loud when it rained. On a home, townhome or heated commercial facility, the steel panels are fastened to an underlayment, then decking, with insulation under that and a sheet rock ceiling which absorbs and muffles sound.

In addition, and this too helps muffle sound, some metal roofs can be installed over an asphalt roof.  Considering the layer of shingles, roof deck, attic air space, rafters, the insulation, and sheetrock ceiling, individuals who have metal roof say what they hear when it rains is the rain on their skylights and soft metals (gutters), not their metal roof.

Can I walk on my metal roof?

Yes, but like with any roof care should always be taken.

How much does a metal roof cost compared to asphalt roofs?

Initially a metal roof may cost more depending on the type of asphalt shingle you compare it to.  A steel roof will never need to be replaced in your lifetime, lasting 40-80 years (depending on metal type) when compared to asphalt roofs which last about 17-20 years in our climate. If you have hail, wind or storm damage asphalt shingles are more likely to damage when compared to a metal roof. Therefore over a life-time,  a metal roof is less expensive.
